W: Well, Allen, the mountain-lake cycle tour is a two-day bicycle tour from Ottawa to Kingston and back. It is not a race, cut more like an endurance test for recreational cyclists. People do it for fitness and fun and try to better their time every year.
M: How long does it take to cycle one-way, Marilyn？
W: About seven to nine hours for the average cyclists. Racers can do it in four hours. But as I said, tour is not intended to be a race.
M: How many people will be taking part this year？
W: This is our biggest year ever. We have twelve hundred cyclists registered.
M: I hate to he on the road when the cyclists start out.
W: Don't worry, we've introduce the stagger starts to avoid these problems. Our first group will leave Ottawa at seven o'clock, and other groups will follow every twenty minutes.
M: Thank you, Marilyn. Now down to the starting line of the university.

听力原文：M: Here we are. Brochures for one day excursions.
W: Mm. A riverboat trip. That looks interesting.
M: Yeah. It does. Where does it go？ And how do we get to the river？
W: It says to go by bus to the river. That costs $ 5 per person each way. Then the boat gees along the river for 4 hours. And we can get a meal on the boat.
M: How much does it cost altogether？
W: Well, the boat trip costs $ 20 and the meal is extra if we want it. I suppose it's a hit expensive -- $ 30 each altogether, and that's not counting the food and drinks.
M: Yes. It would be relaxing but it is a bit expensive.
W: You're right. What about horse riding or cycling？ Can you ride a horse？
M: Not very well. I've only ridden a horse twice in my life. How much does it cost？
W: Let me see. Horse riding is a bit expensive too -- $ 30 for 2 hours. And we'd have to go there by bus. And that would be an extra cost.
M: Er, what about cycling？ That shouldn't be tm expensive. Here we are, err, mountain bikes for hire. $ 30 a day. But $ 20 of that is a deposit and you can get it back when you return the bike. I wonder how far away the cycle hire place is.
W: No. It's not far at all. I'll show you...
M: That's terrific. Cycling looks the best, doesn't it？ That should give us enough exercise. And we can take our own lunch and have a picnic. Now all we have to do is to decide which direction to cycle in.
W: Great. Let's go. We can talk about that while we're walking to the hire place.

Section B
Directions: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice.
It may turn out that the "digital divide" -- one of the most fashionable of recent slogans -- is largely fiction.
As you will recall, the argument went well beyond the unsurprising notion that the rich would own more computers than the poor. The disturbing part of the theory was that society was dividing itself into groups of technology "haves" and "have nots" and that this segregation (分隔)would, in turn, worsen already large economic inequalities, It's this argument that's either untrue or widely exaggerated.
We always should have been suspicious. After all, computers have spread quickly, precisely be- cause they've become cheaper to buy and easier to use. Falling prices and skill requirements suggest that the digital divide would spontaneously (自发地) shrink -- and so it has.
As a slogan, the "digital divide" brilliantly united a concern for the poor with a faith in technology. It also suggested an agenda: put computers in schools and connect classrooms to the Internet.
Well, the agenda has been largely realized. By 2000, public schools in the U.S. had roughly one computer for every four students. Some students get computer skills that they might miss otherwise. Among 10- to 17-year-old students from homes with less than $15 000 of income, about half use computers only at school.
But whether education and students life prospects have improved is a harder question. As yet, computers haven't produced broad gains in test scores. As for today's computer skills, they may not be terribly important, in part because technology constantly changes.
Often, new computer skills can be taught in a few weeks. But basic reading and reasoning skills remain critical. People have to be able to read manuals and follow instructions.
The "digital divide" suggested a simple solution for a complex problem. But what people do for themselves matters more than what technology can do for them.
According to some people, the division of society in accessing to technology would ______.
